Join the court-side chaos with Tyler Huck and Chris Marler as they usher in a new era of "Fourth and Wrong." Through the lens of Alabama's heart-stopping victory over UNC, we unfold the strategic ballet that is college hoops. We analyze the pivotal shots and coaching chess moves that could've altered the outcome, offering our listeners a courtside seat to the tactical nuances that make the game electric. From Purdue's powerhouse performance to the controversial whistles that sway the fate of games, we've got your insider look at what shapes the collegiate basketball landscape.The episode takes a slam dunk into the multifaceted world of college athletics, where drafting talents across varying sports becomes an art form. Hear tales of those under-the-radar baseball gems and towering 'project' athletes like the 6'9" pitcher who set scouts abuzz. Could DJ Burns make a leap to the NFL? We dissect the financial temptations against the backdrop of grueling physical adjustments. As March Madness builds, we spotlight the NCAA basketball tournament. Switching gears, we celebrate the power of women's basketball, as Iowa and LSU deliver a showdown worthy of the history books. Caitlin Clark dazzles, and we're here to amplify the hype and push for the in-depth journalism that the women's game richly deserves. And while we're shattering backboards, let's talk Damian Lillard and the unfair flak athletes catch for having passions beyond the court. So, lace up your sneakers, hit play, and let's embark on this wild ride through the thrilling world of college sports, where every play is more than just a game—it's a story waiting to be told.Support the show4th and Wrong is available on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Google Podcasts, and wherever else you listen to podcasts.

From the Southland to the Big 10, we have you covered. From Purdue to Rutgers, the Big 10 is the deepest conference. But the Big East might provide the best day-to-day excitement with improved DePaul and Marquette. Kentucky strikes a new look in the SEC. The American is poised to scoop up at-large bids. Louisiana Tech's Kenny Lofton Jr. takes us back to the late 1980s. Texas Southern's win over Florida might finally get the SWAC out of play-in games.
In September 2019, Purdue Pharma, the maker of OxyContin, filed for bankruptcy to protect itself from 2,600 lawsuits for its role in fueling the U.S. overdose crisis. Author and activist Ryan Hampton served as the co-chair of the official creditors committee that acted as a watchdog during the process—one of only four victims to act as representatives of big insurance companies, hospitals, and pharmacies. Though Hampton originally believed that holding Purdue to account would be enough to right the scales of justice, he soon came to learn that, no matter what the media said, Purdue did not do this alone. Hampton argues they were in fact aided and abetted by the very systems that were supposed to protect Americans. Unsettled: How the Purdue Pharma Bankruptcy Failed the Victims of the American Overdose Crisis is Ryan Hampton's look into what happened behind closed doors—the story of a broken system that failed to protect people over profits, and let millions of lives be destroyed by the opioid crisis. From Purdue's bankruptcy proceedings to the company's eventual restructuring and the evasion of true accountability, Unsettled is also the untold story of how a group of determined ordinary people tried to see justice done against the odds and in the face of brutal opposition from powerful institutions. Join us for Ryan Hampton's inside account of Purdue Pharma's role in the overdose crisis—and for a chilling exposé of those who circumvented justice.
